Michael Lee's Train of Thought

It looks like the potential writers strike may claim the Heroes spin-off. I'm not sure one way or the other on this -- but I think the nature of television now is that a strike can cause a lot more damage to shows than they did in the past. Since repeats aren't as valuable, they can't easily go to those, and for shows that have continuing storylines, a bunch of second-class scripts can kill a show.

We'll see what happens...I can understand why the media companies are struggling so much in what the proper way for people to get paid for what they do with all of the different changes in multimedia and distribution. And the competition is stronger than ever, really.
